Hi there, my name is Ryan Turner, longtime fan of XLADV'a Social Media feeds. I am pretty new to the online Forum format. I ride a 2016 KTM690 Enduro R mostly, as well as a YZ450F. I am interested in Group Rides, Dual Sport & Adventure Riding Events, Rallys etc... I ride just about every weekend and look forward to getting more involved with the extended Two-Wheeled Community. (I also sell beer for a living so I'm always packing cold hoppy refreshments) Stoked to be here, Cheers!

It was a wonderful day of riding. It was also my first time aboard a European dirt bike other than a Bultaco or Montessa (I am ancient!) The morning wasn't too hot, and the dirt condition was perfect.
Thanks Bryan & Steve for a terrific time. You guys are first class gentlemen!

After the @XLADV @lostforareason high sierra event I made the decision to do some mods to my dialed in #ktm690. First was to send my suspension off to @alexmartens at @KONFLICT MOTORSPORTS For some routine maintenance. He had already upgraded my calving and springs a couple years ago so this was to be just maintenance. Once those were sent, I decided to add the @rallyraid evo2 gas tanks to get additional distance. I should be adding close to 100 miles. Since the bike is in pieces and I can't ride, why not change the front tire. I've never tried the #mitas e09 so let's give it a go - particularly since I have only read good reviews. I'll do a few other maintenance items (counter shaft seal for example). Now to begin planning some adventures: #lostcoast #alaska #prudhoebay #bdr #baja4000.
